my wife and i have not been attending the meetings on a regular basis do to her failing health and man did i get the cold shoulder from people last night even a brother who was so nice when he was a lowly publisher or m.s who is now an elder gave me the cold shoulder when i asked him for the lapel cards and holders for the convention he kept saying you should have gotten them from your book study. i think he said it five times so another elder came over to convince him to finally give me the cards its a shame because this same brother turns cartwheels and is all smiles when he comes across us in the street i guess having some type of authority does change you i dont even want to talk to him again.
funny k.h experience last night!!

Your post brings to mind an experience I had. It happened when I was df and had been back groveling at meetings for many months. Everyone knew I was soon to be reinstated. I happened to walk right past one of the dorky dubs (a guy I knew well) in a store and he just ignored my like I was dead. Not even any other dorks around to cause problems and this guy was doing his duty.
The real kicker is he was not even good at being a dub. He was about an hour a month to stay active dub.
